After the New York Mets failed to land Joe Girardi as their next manager, they remain actively searching for their next head man. While the team doesn’t appear prepared to make an announcement, the process is moving along.
According to Bob Nightengale of USA Today (via Twitter), the team has a front runner for the position.
ESPN’s Eduardo Perez is emerging as the “clear front runner” for the job, according to Nightengale.
